Someday I’ll look back on this and laugh January 11, 2005 ~ 10:57 pm
Posted by Julie in : Daily Grind , comments closedWanna hear a funny story? Remember how I told you Friday night my cell phone and my parka got a margarita bath due to a clumsy busgirl? Remember how I said I was going to have to wash said parka? Well, tonight I did that. I thought I had emptied all the pockets before I put it in the washer. But when I went looking for my cell phone while waiting for the wash cycle to finish, I couldn’t find it.
Because it was in the parka. In the washer. The front load washer that can’t be opened mid-cycle. So I had to wait a long time to get my cell phone out of it. And I had a long time to think about exactly how much of an idiot I was.
I called T-Mobile tonight and they’re going to send me another handset. It’s a free replacement if the phone’s malfunction falls under warranty. Which it won’t if they find water damage. If I’ve voided the warranty, intentionally or unintentionally, it’s going to cost me $70 for the replacement.
The phone is in my furnace room right now, hopefully drying out.
Someday I’m going to look back on this and laaaaugh. At least that’s what I keep telling myself.
